it’s like this. Club have been confident but even forgetting them, I spoke to someone close to James yesterday who said it will “100% get done” (his words not mine, just so we’re clear). It’s been hanging that way since last week. Question now is whether it’ll actually go through

Well according to his team mates he didn't want to go. So who do you believe - the BBC or his team mates?
Whatever happened, the whole thing has been a waste of time. Not surprising to have us involved in a feck up though. |
From Phil Hay -"a very awkward situation for James who told Swansea that he wanted to leave and take the move. Leeds might revisit this in the summer but that's for another day. Big frustration to have missed out on him" |  |

FFS this is getting silly now. At least we've still got Cybil

What a bizarre day.
Genuinely one of the strangest days I've had supporting us. |  | | |

That’s one I’m not bothered about tbh. All the Yanks are doing though is to make the accounts look good for a sale. |  |

The plot thickens. While I understand keeping Dan, not sure why someone would pull the plug on Fer going. He's gone in the summer anyway, so this is either someone in the club making a statement or the club believing that we can go up this season and with Bony gone, we can take the financial hit of keeping Fer for another six months. |
Fer has easily been one of our better players this year, that much has been clear. In the midfield department, we had him, Fulton, Grimes and Carroll right?
Quite frankly I can understand the decision to let Carroll go as he's on Prem wages and Grimes, frankly, has been much better. |  | | |

We play them away on 13th Feb.   |
Aye, it will be a tasty atmosphere that day too. Wonder if we'll play Dan?
I was just thinking how much tastier it will be next season if they mess up promotion and Dan is still in our team... |  |

Well I've heard a rumour from within the corridors of Liberty that there is a possible buyer/consortium interested in us.
Been sitting on it for about 10 days as I know what some are like on here. But there you go, time will tell if true. |  | | |

From a fan's point of view, I get it. Not so much from the club's point of view given their drive to get PL wages off the books.
If today ends with Bony, Carroll and Montero gone (only Montero of those has contributed much this season and he'll be crocked again soon anyway) while Fer and James stay (2 players who have contributed plenty), I'll be delighted. | |

Unless there was a last minute discussion about Carroll and they preferred to get him off the books instead given that Fer isn't likely to be our problem beyond June whereas Carroll will be?
They can't be on much different wages. | | | |

You will go up and you’ll need much better than Dan in the summer. |  |

Good point and as likely to be correct as what I said.
I know Fer is wildly inconsistent, but can't help thinking Villa trying to sign him and ending up with Carroll is the modern day version of AC Milan wanting John Barnes and ending up with Luther Blissett! | |

The school was named after Daniel James, who wrote the great Welsh hymn, Calon lan.

My money’s on an ultimatum from Potter sparking this. |  | | |

In that case, enjoy your owners letting your club rot - only came for a few decent opinions. |

Surely incredibly unprofessional to even send him to Leeds and then basically ignore any contact for 5 hours? Just don't get why it even got to that stage if it wasn't going to happen. |
Yep- our club all over.
Presumably our board kept you waiting to check if the bony deal could be sealed. When that was sealed sounds like we took the phone off the hook.
Players seem happy he staying, interesting bit is will they finally offer him a new contract and, if they do will he sign it?
The PR story we are fed is that the fire sales have been to get the top earners off the books and to give youngsters a chance. This deal would have flown in the face of their own PR and increased the anger against the owners and board to an even greater level. | | | |
